My Iphone 12 Got Stolen by IvoryGold: 9:21am On Nov 03, 2022
My iPhone 12 got stolen close to Alaba I was tracking it but the theft removed the sim and before I knew it the phone was at alaba. The tracking is still working but not at effective as the radius it’s showings is to big. They are a lot of shops there and the apple map is very bad in Nigeria.

I have the general location and lost mode is ON and It is also showing my number and a reward for the return of my “lost” phone. Can police do something?

They can't till a sim card is inserted into the phone... then, they can track it provided you have the IMEI serial number

You want to give them your icloud login details? How dumb geez.
If they can login,then it's no more regarded as stolen again by icloud,which assumes the owner found the phone and logged in again. Infact they become legit owners,they can change all your details so you can't track it again because they have unlimited access now.
Your phone is gone either way but don't make it easy for them to cash out big from you

Thought iphone users are buying the phones because of security. So somebody can steal an iphone and go free?

There's hope. Eventually someone will buy the phone, that's for sure . The buyer will use some sim in it , and it'll make it easy to track;you'll pay the police because they will NOT do if free.

Once they track it to a location, you can get them to swoop in on the buyer, who may lead you to the actual thief(if justice is your thing and not just the phone)

You are not smart

Dont give them your iCloud login.

Relax and continue to track.

The phone is currently in a bag somewhere which is why signal is low.

I hope you did bot switch of find my network.

If find my network is on, the moment they come close to any iphone, it will get better signals and more precise.

Continue to track.

Why not give the police the number they are using to send you messages?

@N_Landers...
A Wise Man once said to me; "The only reliable way to unlock an iPhone is to use iCloud, since it ain't end-to-end encrypted".
Don't reply those messages, bruh.

Ignore.

Don’t verify anything

Keep tracking
Re: My Iphone 12 Got Stolen by fineboynl(m): 11:14am On Nov 05, 2022
How did they even acces the phone? I like the fact iPhone removed the physical sim feature.

Were they able to use ur face id or passcode to open it?

I don’t get it because if it’s iPhone thar phone is useless.
